503 Fourth St.   

        This residence was built about 1920 for Dr. Howard Smith who founded the Smith Hatchery in 1925.  It is of the Box style with attic dormers on the south, east, and north and a raised basement.  The roof is tiled.  The entrance is large and has side lights.  On the north there is a chimney with two chimney posts and with small flanking windows on the first story.  On the south at the second story are French doors which lead to a small frame and wrought iron balcony.  There is a basement entrance below a large window.  The west side has a projecting one-story, one-bay brick porch with a tiled hip roof which is now enclosed.  To the southwest is a two-car attached garage.  A concrete drive leads to it from Fourth Street
